Election Q&A: Two candidates to take part in runoff for Plano City Council Place 7

Why are you running for Plano City Council?
CR: My 20 years in the military has me grounded in a philosophy of selfless service. I want to continue to serve, just in a different capacity. I want to represent the best interests of the residents of Plano by serving on the City Council. Additionally, Plano needs leadership they can trust and who believes in transparency.
What are your qualifications for seeking this office?
CR: I am an experienced leader with more than 20 years of active military service. As an officer and platoon leader in the Army deployed to Afghanistan, I was in charge of base security and subsequently responsible for the safety and security of more than 500 soldiers and local Afghan nationals. I was also responsible for managing $18 million of taxpayer funded government property without incident of fraud, waste or abuse. These skills are absolutely critical when dealing with city budgets, managing infrastructure and prioritizing issues according to importance. My time as an Army officer has undoubtedly prepared me to serve you on Plano City Council, and I will do so putting your needs above mine.

Election Q&A: 2 candidates to take part in runoff for Richardson ISD At-Large Place 7

Contact: 979-324-6088;
Why did you decide to run for the Richardson ISD board of trustees?
AC: I decided to run for Richardson ISD board of trustees because I believe in the power of education and the influence our school systems have on communities and students. I adore the Richardson community and school district. I am encouraged by RISD’s deep commitment to meet the needs of all students and families, and I hope to build on that commitment. I believe that my experience in education and background in leadership will allow me to partner with current trustees and RISD school and system leaders to continue the momentum started by former trustees.

Plano petition seeking eminent domain special election falls short of requirements

“Section 702 of the charter requires signatures equal to 20% of the number of votes cast in the last regular election, or 4,403 for this petition,” Henderson said.
City staff spent around 300 hours doing multiple reviews of the document, City Manager Mark Israelson said. Aside from the lack of enough qualifying signatures, City Attorney Paige Mims said the proposed ordinance was in conflict with state law and would not be enforceable.
“At the end of the day, this ordinance would have no legal meaning, in our opinion,” Mims said. “It's just in conflict with a lot of things and also would create some exposure to the city for paying attorney's fees. For those reasons, we don't think that the council should take this up.”
